KCLC-HD2 (St. Louis, MO)
- Sunlight-The Youngbloods (Jesse Colin Young sings the refrain, "That's the way she feels about you," reassuringly to match his guitar strumming. I miss playing Young's solo version of this on KNJZ.)
- It Never Entered My Mind-Miles Davis Quintet (One of the best, most resonant Davis covers; this is a sublime 1956 version of the Richard Rodgers tune. Red Garland conveys the tune's warmth movingly on the piano.)
- Come With Me-Tania Maria (Breezy Brazilian vocals from 1982 that would fit easily into a smooth jazz format between Al Jarreau and George Benson tunes.)
- Stay Faithful-Lynden David Hall (Elements of Al Green's voice are easy to detect in Hall's vocals here. Conceivably, this could fit into a smooth jazz playlist.)
- Saint Simon-The Shins (Impressively layered backing vocals underscore good lyrics about not overthinking things.)
